Just tested Virtual PC on my machine with Jaws and the command prompt did come up once I set everything up but alas, Jaws did not want to read the virtual machines window. The setup process for it is very accessible though. I would assume that a person could once everything is created and running install Linux to it and run it from there. Would be curious to know whether Mac OS could be run on it, since it claims to run x86 operating systems, and the later versions of Mac OS do run on Intel processors.JohnPG search for all of your Jaws scripts at http://www.blindcrawler.com/Also be sure to check out Blind Crawler's Legend of the Green Dragon server at http://www.blindcrawler.com/lotg/There will be more to come from Blind Crawler very soon.

Maybe somebody who tried it can compare it with VMWare.Octavian----- Original Message ----- From: "Marlon Brandão de Sousa" <splyt.lists@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, November 05, 2007 6:14 PM Subject: Re: Microsoft Virtual PCthe systems can be installed on it but the virtual machines screens are being drawn directly so no screen readers installed on the hiost machine can read screens from the virtual machines. Other than this it's a question of preferenses. As most part of things there're several sites comparing the virtualiuzation technologies, each one claiming one of them is better than other. I've choosen vmware although others can choose different solutions. Marlon 2007/11/5, Octavian Rasnita <orasnita@xxxxxxxxx>:Hi, Does anyone if Microsoft Virtual PC is accessible to Jaws? I mean, I know that the main program is accessible, but I don't know if after creating the Virtual machines they are accessible for the blind. This program is something like VMWare.The program is absolutely free and it can be downloaded from Microsoft'ssite. You can find it by searching for its name with Google.It could even be a better option for us than VMware, and I heard that othersystems like Linux can be installed on it.
